Alcohol fermentation
• Alcohol fermentation is an anaerobic
(no oxygen), exothermic (heat-
releasing) process in which sugars
break down into ethyl alcohol
CH3CH2OH and carbon dioxide gas
C6H12O6 -->
> 2 C2H5OH + 2 CO2 + 23 Kcal

Alcoholic fermentation
• When yeast is grown
under anaerobic
conditions, sugars are
fermented to alcohol
and carbon dioxide.
• At about a
concentration of 12%,
ethanol itself inhibits
further growth of the
microbial organisms
and the process stops.

– Being underbaked, the bread serves as a live yeast culture and when
the bread was cut into small pieces and placed in a large jug with
water malt would be produced
water, malt would be produced.
– The preinoculated malt when left out will ferment becoming beer.
